    The 5th verse isn’t in 1 Corinthians but in 2 Corinthians.

  • COMMENT “shop” for the best Christmas Toy gift idea 🎁🎄it’s seriously so fun! && it’s on SALE!

@nexplayground is a fully interactive gaming system and I have to say, I’ve been so impressed!! 

Your body is the remote, so you’re very active the entire time. You can play with one player or up to 4 players on some games.

With their play pass, you get so many family friendly games. No ads, no mature content. Theres games for preschoolers, sports games, music and dance/ health and fitness so many options.

I wish we would have bought this sooner.
